Tombstone Fact
Did you know?
Grave markers or tombstones are considered personal property. Most home insurance policies cover up to $5,000 worth of damage, assuming it isn’t the result of staff negligence at the cemetery where the tombstone is located.
Salem Cemetery Fund needs your help. A number of tombstones are in need of straightening/repair. We'd like to spend $2000 annually to do this maintenance, but we can't do this without donations. We have a company from Crookston that can do the repairs. If you have family members buried at Salem or would just like to help out, please consider donating to the Salem Cemetery Fund to continue this important work.
